IoT and smart metering connectivity strategy
An independent, evidence-based view of how your metering and device estate connects today, where it is fragile and what to do next.
The problem
Most device estates grow one deployment at a time. SIMs, radio modules, APNs, backhaul and platform contracts end up spread across suppliers and spreadsheets, so nobody can describe the estate — or its true cost per device — accurately.
Who it is for
Utilities, metering operators, MOAs, energy suppliers and OEMs planning a rollout, a technology refresh or a migration off an ageing network.
What we do
- Current-state review of devices, SIMs, radio bearers, APNs and platforms
- Coverage, penetration and signal analysis against real deployment locations
- Data volume, reporting frequency and traffic-profile modelling
- 2G/3G sunset, module end-of-life and bearer migration exposure
- Target connectivity model and rollout roadmap
Deliverables
- Device and connectivity estate inventory
- Bearer and coverage assessment report
- Risk register with prioritised remediation
- Rollout roadmap and outline business case
Outcomes
- A single, trusted view of every connected device and what it costs
- Clarity on sunset and end-of-life exposure before it bites
- A defensible investment case for the board or regulator
